# Pierre Andre (announcer)

Pierre Andre (born Philip Litman, November 25, 1899 – July 21, 1962) was an announcer in the era of old-time radio.

## Early years

## Radio

His obituary noted that he "introduced the first of the remote dance band broadcasts, the Midnight Flyers program from the Blackhawk restaurant." It also reported that he adapted to different types of programming as old-time radio formats disappeared, being replaced by talk shows and other genres.
Programs on which Andre was heard nationally as an announcer included Little Orphan Annie, Arnold Grimm's Daughter, Betty and Bob, Backstage Wife, Carters of Elms Street, Easy Aces, Sky King, Captain Midnight,$^{:63}$ How's the Family?$^{:159}$ and The Romance of Helen Trent.

# Deep Creek Ranger Station

# Depot Square Historic District (Randolph, Vermont)

The Depot Square Historic District encompasses the historic commercial business district of Randolph, Vermont. Developed in the mid-19th century around the facilities of the Central Vermont Railway, the area features a high concentration of well-preserved Second Empire and late Victorian commercial architecture. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1975.

## Description and history

The town of Randolph is located in the White River valley of central Vermont, roughly midway between Montpelier (the state capital) and White River Junction, a commercial and industrial center on the Connecticut River. Its original center was centered on the banks of the White River in the western part of the town, about 0.5 miles (0.80 km) north of the present commercial business district. The Central Vermont Railway introduced service to the town in 1848, and its depot became the new focus for commercial and industrial activity. Most of the area's buildings date after 1875, with the current railroad station dating to 1877. Industrial buildings include the Randolph Coal and Ice Company building, and a large grain mill. Depot Square is lined with brick commercial buildings built in the 1870s and 1880s, that are fine examples of Second Empire and Late Victorian architecture.
The historic district is organized around the three sets of railroad tracks that run roughly east–west, roads that parallel them on either side (forming Depot Square), and stretches of Main Street (Vermont Route 12) and Pleasant Street that extend north from railroad crossing to their point of junction. The train depot is located at Salisbury and Main streets, and commercial buildings line Main and Salisbury streets, and Merchants Row in this area. Pleasant Street is lined on one side by predominantly residential buildings, and the other by the back sides of Main Street properties.
# Septimal chromatic semitone

In music, a septimal chromatic semitone or minor semitone is the interval 21:20 (Play). It is about 84.47 cents. The septimal chromatic semitone may be derived from the harmonic series as the interval between the twentieth and twenty-first harmonics.
The septimal chromatic semitone equals a just chromatic semitone (25:24) plus a septimal semicomma (126:125).
When added to the 15:14 semitone, the 21:20 semitone and 28:27 semitone produce the 9:8 tone (major tone) and 10:9 tone (minor tone), respectively.

# Amy Katherine Browning

Amy Katherine Browning; Amy Dugdale; Amy Katherine Dugdale (31 March 1881 – 27 January 1978) was a British Impressionist painter.

## Life

Browning was born in Limbury in the Civil Parish of Luton, in 1881. Her childhood residence, Little Bramingham Farm, is now a residential care home in the town.
Her parents, Katherine Lucy and James Day Browning would have eight children and she was the second. Amy's father was a farm bailiff at the time of her birth. On the 1891 Census he is listed as a Farmer. She entered the Royal College of Art in 1899 but had to leave in 1901 as she was eldest unmarried daughter and her mother was pregnant.
She was the favourite student of Gerald Moira when scholarships allowed her to return to the Royal College. Moira would send her upstairs to teach the male student painters. She left the college in 1906. She had become friends with Sylvia Pankhurst and together they created an art exhibition for the Women's Social and Political Union at the Prince's Skating Club in 1909. They remained friends and they worked to raise money for the poor during the First World War. Meanwhile, she was teaching, but she also had early success with her painting. In 1913 the French government bought Chequered Shade which had taken the silver medal when it was exhibited at the Paris Salon in 1913. The French also bought The Red Shawl. When the Paris Salon restarted after the war she returned and exhibited regularly taking the gold medal once. Browning was also continuing to exhibit regularly at the Royal Academy and at other international locations. She would sign her paintings "A.K.Browning" to avoid any discrimination based on gender.
Browning spent her time teaching to subsidise her painting. She also took commissions including one of Winston Churchill and another of his wife.
The artist was the first woman to be elected to the Royal Society of Portrait Painters. In 1952 her husband, Thomas Cantrell Dugdale, died and she gave up their house in Suffolk and went to live in a flat in Chelsea. By 1954 she was once again working in Luton, on a series of paintings of the Leslie Jones Ltd hat factory. During this period she lived close by at the home of the company's director, Henry Jenkinson, in Weston, Hertfordshire. Several of these paintings are now held by Stockport Heritage Services.
Her great-niece was the actress Joanna Dunham.

## Death and legacy

Browning died in Letchworth. She has paintings in Musée Baron Gerard, Bayeux, Luton Museum and Art Gallery, Wolverhampton Museum and Art Gallery, Ipswich Museum and Art Gallery, Kelvingrove Museum and the Royal Academy's collection. Portraits of her are held in the collection of the National Portrait Gallery.
